Question
Hi Isabel,
Can you tell me the name of the old movie (probably 1950's or 1960's) where a rich woman meets a poor tree surgeon or man who runs a nursery and lives in an old mill.  They fall in love (against her family's values) and he converts the old mill into a lovely home.  He falls off a snowy cliff and .....
Thank you.

Answer
Dear Gale,

I am so excited I know this movie and I must agree it is a great movie. The other day I was thinking how it has been awhile since I have seen it.

It is called All That Heaven Allows staring Rock Hudson and Jane Wyman. For a movie description check out http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047811/

I hope this helps. Have you seen Magnificent Obsession? I like that movie, too, it also stars Hudson and Wyman.

Hope you have a great day! :-D

Expertise

Please consider asking Nell Minow because she seems more knowledgable than I am, but if she is unavailable I may be able to help. Please read my expertise & realize you are asking a question in romantic movies because I will feel bad if I cannot help you but if you ask about something outside my area of expertise likely I will be unable to help. I can answer questions about story lines, characters, and cast/crew in ROMANTIC movies 1940s, 1950s, & 1990 - present. I cannot help you with questions related to gossip surrounding the cast or people who are not listed in the credits. If the movie is rated R I probably cannot help you.

Experience

I have seen numerous romantic movies and read different articles about them.
